Why do most GPUs only have ONE DP?

This is something that really bothers me, but why is it that most GPUs (and all Nvidia) GPUs only have one DisplayPort output? Why can't they have at least two mini-DP instead? I prefer using DP cables with my dual monitors but a lot of cards end up screwing that up for me.

I currently have a 7970 Lightning with 4 mini-DPs and expected the top end AMD cards to continue with something like that but I'm not seeing it. Is this ever likely to change?
 
Ugh, how annoying. Trying to get rid of those unwieldy DVI cables and keep having to dig them back out because of this.
